Non-buggy hardware will be more difficult to come by as databases
become larger on commodity hardware. Of course you can define the
problem away by saying that Postgres is only good for enterprises.
Right now file systems are being changed to be more resilient. ZFS
and the Linux working group to replace/extend the ext* series are
examples. Databases will have to follow suit eventually.
There are probably other things with higher priority for Postgres
right now though.
